Children are sometimes afraid to go to sleep at night. In this story, available for the first time as a board book, a young girl dreams that she's all alone in a tiny boat. She feels lost and abandoned until the moon, the sun, the wind, and a dove lead her back to shore, where she realizes she was never alone at all. Based on old nursery rhymes, the poetic text by Newbery Honor winner Kathi Appelt and the beautiful light-filled paintings of Debra Reid Jenkins combine to make this gentle bedtime story a perfect illustration of God's abiding love. |
